My husband longboards and he LOVES it. Especially flying down Mt. Lemon at 45 mph. :yikes: I tried learning and it was really fun, but then I got pregnant and lost my sense of balance. His board was made by landyachtz.

Edit: Whoa! That is one sweet board!

Oh lord, my 17 Y/O son eats, sleeps, and breaths skate boarding.........and has for at least 6 years or more now.

Here is his headboard..........and yes, that is his actual wall color :rolleyes: he also has bright yellow caution tape around the top of his room.........Geesh!

and this is barely a drop in the bucket......you can see Bam Margeras, various other Elements, Pandas, DGK, and I don't know what all else in that mess! At around 90 bucks each just for the deck......I am GLAD he is working a summer job! LOL

Here is his Stevie Williams board.....it is a DGK, and personally autographed to my son.........

I destroyed my face skating last year and haven't been on a board since :eek: but I used to love it. I had a few element logo boards.

I want to start skating again this summer and I have my eye on the Bam Guitar deck.

My twelve year old daughter l oves it, but after she puts on her helmut, long sleeved shirt, jeans, protective pads for elbows and knees, and gloves, she is not so enthusiastic. LOL. When she gets older, i'll let her dress down, maybe.

LOL, caution tape is hard to find, atleast here it is. You can find plenty of the red striped warning tape, but caution tape is hard to come by so be proud.

I would love to skateboard, I'm good at TH underground and wasteland but can't get the courage to do it myself. lol

I have my heart set on snowboarding actually. pity i havn't seen snow in over 7 years now. lol and probably won't for a few more.

The last time I was on a skateboard, I ripped my knee open. Then the guy who owned the skateboard and I started becoming increasingly pissed off at each other, so no more skateboard.

I sucked, hence the damage to my knee, but it was fun.

I used to skateboard, once upon a time. It was a lot of fun, but I haven't done it in years.

LOL that's the color I wanted to paint my room! But my mom made me go for something a little less shocking. :D

I had a skateboard when I was like...9 years old lol. I had fun going down the street with it but I was too terrified to do anything else. :p

Awe southpaw that's too bad..........I let my kids express themselves in their own rooms, I mean I don't have to be in there often enough to matter :D

One of my daughters has the 70's look.......blue ceiling, purple walls and peace signs/flower powers everywhere. The other daughter has a jungle theme.......beige walls (which I like) but jungle animal border & lots of animal print fabric everywhere.
